In the weekend I attended my oldest cousin's 40th birthday celebration which was high tea in a lovely cottage in Athenree, near where she lives with a small group of special family and friends.

Her favourite colour is purple, so my main focus of her card was to have purple in it. She also likes flowers and many years ago used to work with flowers, so I wanted to incorporate that into the card too.

I started the card in the afternoon and finished it in the evening. I initially added some ribbon which I thought was purple, but when I took it down to the other end of the house, in a different light I realised it was more of a navy blue than purple. Oh dear! I wanted it all to be matching so I wasn't happy with how it looked. I didn't want to pull the ribbon off and risk spoiling the card, so I found some other purple ribbon (kindly given to me from my upline, Julia) and mounted that over the top off the other one. At least it added a bit more dimension to it and now it all matched.

I also made her a small gift bag with some chocolates in it too to go along with her main gift, some earrings.

Here is the other card we made at our card class last weekend. Something a little different and special. Some of the class participants decided to use it as their Mother's Day card for the following day. It also uses the emboss resist technique which is one of my favourite techniques.

Next month's weekend class:Next month we are making something special - A Card Caddy and some cards. It is a great way to be organised with your cards. We will be using the Afternoon Daydream Simply Scrappin; Kit, shown below.

This kit has enough materials to make two Card Caddies and a few cards, or one Caddy and lots of cards. The Card Caddy was designed by Sharlene Meyer. I have purchased her tutorial and have her permission to make this in my class. If you would like to come to my class please email me. More details on my class can also be found here. If you would like to see the one she made, clickhere. If you would like to make this and are not in Auckland, you can also contact Sharlene as she has the tutorial for sale.

Julia, my upline taught me this card many months ago and I finally got to teach it in my class in the weekend. It is great card to make. It looks effective and is relatively easy to make. If you choose the right colours, like what I have used here, it is good for a male card too.

I have been busy recently preparing for my classes, so that is why I haven't had much time to make some cards to post.

I finally got time the other day to have a play with the Honeycomb Embossing Folder from the Seasonal Catalogue. I used Core'dinations Early Espresso card and so sanded it a little after I embossed it. It makes the shapes stand out that much more. I added some smaller hexagonal shapes made from the Parker's Pattern DSP range inside some of the shapes. To do this I embossed the DSP paper first and then used my scissors to cut the shapes out using the embossed lines as a guide. I mounted all this onto Whisper White card and lastly added some twine and a sentiment. I think I may try something like this again, but next time use Crumb Cake as my base card.

This and That is a new product that will be available in the new catalogue in July, but Stampin' Up! are giving you the chance to get it now! It is a 'smash' book.

Now, are you wondering what a 'smash' book is? Basically it is a way to capture memories and life moments. The idea
goes back to the roots of scrapbooking when people made
simple memory books. They stuffed them full of memorabilia, photos and
mementos. Then scrapbooking took on it's own art form. The smash book
idea is to go back to that quick and easier way of capturing what is
going on in your life. You can quickly add journaling and photos, stuff
in special treasures and there you have it, life captured and "smashed"
into your book!

This and That is a great way to collect those special momentos - tickets, stickers, photos, special little treasures, etc.

This is what Stampin' Up! has to say about the new product:Your life is: Awesome. Quirky. Exciting. Perfectly messy. And
happening really fast. So we’re happy to introduce our newest product
line that lets you capture it all on-the-go. This and That will debut in
the 2013-2014 annual catalogue, but we’re giving you and everybody else
the chance to get it now. See more here.
